HC 30 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Constitution; amend to require the State of Mississippi to follow federal procurement laws if a citizen is awarded a federal grant.

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment requiring Mississippi state agencies to follow federal procurement laws when a Mississippi citizen receives a federal grant. It directly affects state departments and local governments that administer federal grant funds. The key provision mandates that all state entities must comply with federal procurement rules in such cases, rather than state-specific procedures. The amendment would only apply when a grant is awarded to a Mississippi resident, not for general state spending. (Note: The bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and is not active.)
